Chapter 744: Chapter 744: Do You Have Any Needs in That Regard?
Xie Xubai placed the agreent in front of her and said, “This agreent only stipulates the financial details, but it doesn’t address marital obligations.”
“Marital obligations?”
Huo Sijiao instantly understood his point. She had considered this aspect but assud it was a mutual understanding.
Since this was a marriage alliance, well… they could discuss it later.
Isn’t that sort of thing supposed to happen naturally?
Huo Sijiao’s ears turned red, and her voice lowered. “After we’re married, will you have… needs in that regard?”
Xie Xubai was candid, “I do. Any normal man would have.”
“How did you deal with it before?”
“Do you really want to know?”
Xie Xubai’s lips curved slightly, “Our Xie Family has strict rules; we don’t just find won outside. I’m tasked with revitalizing the Xie Family, so I didn’t have ti to pursue it before. If I had any… physical reactions…”
He extended his fair and slender right hand, pushing the dessert on the table towards her.
He picked up a small fork and handed it to her, continuing, “It can be handled on one’s own.”
Huo Sijiao’s gaze fell on his hand.
His hand exuded a sense of restrained tension, pale to the extre. Though clearly a gentle man, there was a certain sharpness in the details.
That hand… handling it on his own?
She let out a soft breath, feeling the warmth in her exhale.
“So after marriage… if you have needs, it’s not out of the question.” Huo Sijiao bit her lip, “Once we’re married, we’re husband and wife, I can fulfill the marital obligations.”
“Do you sound reluctant?”
“Not reluctant, I’m not losing out either.” Huo Sijiao looked at his deanor and that elegant, attractive face.
Definitely not losing out!
Xie Xubai let out a light laugh, making Huo Sijiao’s face turn completely red.
He waved a hand, and a waiter from the café ca over.
“Sir, what do you need?”
“Could you please bring a pen, and pour her a glass of lemon water as well?”
The waiter replied respectfully, “Of course.”
A mont later, a black pen was placed in front of them, and a glass of lemon water was set beside Huo Sijiao.
Huo Sijiao looked at him confused, “Why do you need a pen?”
Xie Xubai uncapped the pen and handed it to her, “There are still so disputed clauses we should agree upon and write down. Once signed, this prenuptial agreent will be complete.”
“Oh.”
She opened her red lips and began to write in the blank spaces, unsure of how to phrase it, how to word the marital obligations?
Xie Xubai kindly suggested, “I’ll handle the family expenses since I’m the man. You can keep your money, so outsiders won’t mock .”
“Ah?”
“And… marital obligations, at least twice a week.”
“There’s even a frequency stipulated?” Huo Sijiao was almost unable to cope.
“Didn’t you say you’re not losing out? Twice a week is quite normal. If your needs are greater…”
“No!” Huo Sijiao interrupted him, “Just write it as you said, that’s it!”
Her heart raced like a drum, and she quickly wrote a line in the blank space.
The writing was a bit scribbled!
Huo Sijiao’s voice was a bit hoarse, “I’m done writing. Do you have any other requests?”
“One more thing.”
Xie Xubai looked at her and said, “You should know that the Xie Family’s rules don’t allow divorce. My parents are very much in love. If you marry , you can’t divorce. Do you understand?”
Huo Sijiao’s mind buzzed.
“Huo Sijiao, if you get a certificate with , you can’t divorce. Have you thought it through?”
Huo Sijiao murmured with her mouth slightly open, “Isn’t it just a marriage alliance?”
“It is a marriage alliance, but it’s also sincere.” Xie Xubai looked at her and said, “There’s still room for regret now; it’s up to you what you choose.”
Once married, you can’t divorce.
Huo Sijiao was a bit scared, her fingers slowly curled into a fist.
She initially thought the marriage alliance was to help her family through hard tis and hadn’t considered much else. She thought if things didn’t work out with Xie Xubai, they could still divorce.
The two could sign a prenuptial agreent and live their own lives.
No different from not being married at all.
But now, Xie Xubai wanted a lifelong commitnt with no possibility of divorce!
“What if you et soone you love later, would you still not divorce? Or if I fall for soone else, you won’t let divorce either?” Huo Sijiao pressed, “If there’s no affection between us and we can’t continue, we can’t divorce? That would be a miserable entanglent!”
Xie Xubai listened to her rambling, seeming a bit flustered.
His tone carried a bit of reassurance, “If you change your mind, or feel you can’t be with , I can divorce you.”
Huo Sijiao breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s good. Do you have anything else to add to this prenuptial agreent?”
Xie Xubai shook his head.
Huo Sijiao quickly handed the pen to him, “If there’s no issue, then sign it.”
Xie Xubai took the agreent and signed his na.
Once Huo Sijiao finished this matter, she finally felt relieved.
She held the freshly made prenuptial agreent, feeling like she had resolved a major issue.
“Xie Xubai, from today on you can’t have any relationship with the Pei Family, we are now on the sa boat.”
“Mm.”
The sa bed.
Xie Xubai asked, “When can I co to propose?”
Huo Sijiao’s face turned as red as a monkey’s rear, “Recently… it’s not convenient. Let’s wait until the Lu Family’s free consultation is over.”
“Alright.”
Xie Xubai responded.
Huo Sijiao glanced up at him, not saying anything more. She clutched the prenuptial agreent, finding so embarrassnt in the newly added terms.
Especially that ‘twice a week’—she must be crazy to discuss such matters with a man.
…
While things were warm and tender on their side, it was chaotic on the other side of the Imperial Capital!
On the second day of consulting at the Traditional Chinese dicine Hall, Lu Yingxue managed to get by relying on the three tons of herbs sold at a high price by Zhong Yi. The online buzz was continuous, all praising Lu Yingxue.
Praising her as if she were unparalleled.
But the Lu family father and daughter were furious!
“Can’t reach him! Still can’t reach him! What on earth is Zhao Chang up to! Is he using this as an opportunity to act high and mighty?” Lu Bannong’s phone was nearly smoking from overuse, and it had been dead all day.
Couldn’t reach Zhao Chang personally or his assistant!
It was as if Southwest had cut off all contact!
Looking at the dark night outside, Lu Yingxue stood on the rooftop of the Traditional Chinese dicine Hall, gazing at the bustling cityscape, “Does Zhao Chang also want to exploit the situation? Zhong Yi extorted twenty million from ! If we can’t reach Zhao Chang tonight, what do we do tomorrow?”
If things don’t go smoothly tomorrow, all the efforts and money would be wasted!
Things must not go south! The three-day free consultation must finish smoothly without a single mistake.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Lu Bannong’s phone vibrated, showing the person he had been unable to contact all day!
Zhao Chang!
